Ah, I was looking for the new thread.
Sleepy
Highlander 2 isn't canon.
What're they building in there?What the hell are they building in there?They have subscriptions to these magazines, never wave when they pass by...They're hiding something from the rest of us.
bumpI worry how you gaylords will stay alive while I'm out of town.
>>585425231We're doing fine, although a crumb of good new games would help.
>>585425424Play the Scouring then.
>>585400876New tropico already out?How is it?
>>585426625Shit like all the others
>>585426625That's Tropico 1 but honestly I wouldn't be surprised if another Tropico came out recently since they love releasing them every 3 years or so.
>to make barracks, you need a blacksmith, and an alchemist, and a minimum of 20 slavesDamn this game is complex.I'm starting to suspect that Warcraft 3 with its "start the game, immediately build barracks" was actually the outlier compared to most strategy games.
>barracks requires an alchemist, then a blacksmith>all these buildings have costs that go in the thousands, and need all three ressources>barrack let you train a swordsman who costs barely more than a slave, and has piss-poor statsWhat is it with old RTS having insanely costly buildings but cheap units? I feel like I see that often, and it seems to go against what I saw in the Age Of games, or the breast milk thieves' own RTS.
>"light cavalry" has way better stats than the warriorFuck kind of warriors are these, clearly not the hulking brute with a two-handed axe.
Light cavalry indeed, these assholes have 0 armor.Like, none as all, any damage goes through them like a lubrified strap-on goes in an anus.
what the fuck is that, there's this strange thing in thereIt looks like a gnome house
>warrior comes out>just a faglord with a sword and a shirtAre you serious? I thought warrior meant a professional, a full-time raider/soldier/town guard. Not some peasant with a sword.That dude deals decent damage (8 dmg), but has low hitpoints (only 150 HP), and his sight is bad (next to the range).And worse than everything, it's SLOW. The warrior will only walk to his destination and start swinging lazily at his target.
I'm getting Old School RuneScape/Dark Age of Camelot vibes.I never played Dark Age of Camelot in my life, but if there was a RTS based on it, I imagine it looking like this.
>do all kind of very expensive research, cost in the hundreds>+1 damage>5% damage reduction for melee and ranged damageSince archers deal 5 damages, I'm not even sure it does anything.
>game has collectable cards>one of them shows the GiantWhat the fuck.
So, according to the game, light cavalry counter archers, but I have no idea if it's an ideal thing, like if they get bonus damage like in AoE2, or if it's a soft counter, like they counter archers only because they're faster.
HEYA LET'S KRUMP T'ESE GITS
KILL EVERYONE
>units get bloodier as they get hurtNEAT why don't we get that in more games nowaday?
>keep: mostly wooden structure, looks like a town hall>barracks: some stone structure, surrounded by a wooden palissade>castle: full stoneI like the escalade.
>you're ready for combat!Yeah, about that... the enemy already lies in the ground, dead.
I'm not finding any option to heal my units, that's a shame.God I miss Battle Realms. Love that game.
>towers have 1 000 hitpoints>catapult deal 30 damage pointsUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURGH
>defenses are downKILL THEMSKIN 'EM ALIVEBOIL THEMEAT THEMWE WILL OVERPOWER THEM, WE WILL LEAVE NONE ALONE, THE CODEX CALLS THIS MANEUVER THE STEEL RAIN
>dead unit decompose into skeletonsOh nice. Warcraft 3 and AoE2 both had this, but AoE2 replaced it to instead have the units sinking in the ground. It's not a change I like.
And there we go. That was just the tutorial.

>>585416229you will spook the spiders
>>585434459Because coding in details like that is haaaaard!
>>585430470Warrior being name for a peasant with a sword is apt. Warrior is a retard that walks in an unorganized clusterfuck up to another clusterfuck of similar retards and they do some ooga booga dance and throw few spears at each other.
>>585451109I thought that was a fighter.
